Hi peeps and hope that you are all OK and that you all enjoyed the Bank Holiday :)

Hugest of thanks to everybody who joined in last week and sorry if we didn't get around to you but Mr Blogger is really playing up isn’t he – grrrr!!! But we had another fabulous response and lots of pretty pastel creations :)

Hugest of thanks for a fabulous prize :)xxx

Before we get to the cards, sadly we have to say goodbye to our lovely GDT girlies who have been with us for the last 4 weeks, Ula and Meera. Thank you so much for being part of our team and for sharing your work with us chicksies. And there will be a brand new GDT joining us next week :)

And finally before we get to the cards, we have now gotten through the list of everybody who wanted to take part in our Christmas GDT special so we are now looking for our next GDT so if you fancy joining us for a month, please put GDT after your name on old Linky and we will get Mr Random Thing to choose who it will be :)

So without further ado, let’s check out what the PTW crew did with the old sketch

So that’s what we did and now it’s over to you, and if you get a sec, don’t forget if you get a sec to check out our individual blogs and see what else we have been up to.

As always, could we ask a huge favour peeps please.

Could you help to make our job at leaving comments easier by turning off comment verification and enabling comment moderation instead please pretty please xxxx. It’s ever so easy to do – see our sidebar – and you won’t get spam comments as you can easily reject the comments that you don't want to appear. And also, can we remind you nicely that’s it’s fine to combine challenges but please, no back linking. We hope you understand that it’s only fair to those who make a new card xxx

And also, can I just give you a nice gentle reminder to ask if you could make sure that you link your card and not your blog when using good old Mr Linky please my lovelies. It makes life so much easier for our DT if they don’t have to go searching for your cards. And of course, no back linking – new work only if yuy want to be eligible for the prize.

Hi peeps and hope that you are all OK and that you are all still in one piece after all these awful winds, especially our friends up in bonny Scotland – not good at all and we are sending hugs your way xxx

Hugest of thanks to everybody who joined in last week – we had another fabulous response and lots of blooming gorgeous cards :)

Well done chick and if you e-mail me I’ll pass your details onto those lovely peeps over at The Ribbon Girl, and hugest of thanks to Mary & Andrea for sponsoring us xxx

And here’s Elaine’s card …..

What beautiful bluebells :)

Before we get onto this week, could I just give you a gentle reminder peeps that although we don't have many rules, there are a few which we have to have in order to make it fair to everybody who enters the challenge. So …

You can combine your entry with as many challenges as you like, but your project MUST be a new one. So no back linking to old posts please – we had somebody this week who linked back to a card she had done in February and clearly this isn’t fair to everybody else who has made a new card so from now on, any such entries will be deleted from Mr Linky.

Please please please no linking from here to other challenges. Papertake Weekly is for our friends to join in with the weekly challenges and isn't here to promote other websites or challenges – we hope you understand.

Please can you link back to our challenge on your blog and when linking from here back to you, if you could make sure that you link your card and not your blog when using good old Mr Linky we would be so grateful chicks - it makes life so much easier for our DT if they don’t have to go searching for your cards.

Thanks ever so muchly – we really do appreciate it and these will be posted in our sidebar :)

So onto this week and our challenge is

Pale, Pretty Pastels

So a colour challenge here and as it’s fairly obv, we just want to see pale and pretty pastels lovely peeps lol!!!

This week we are so pleased to welcome back the loveliness that is Wendy over at

Hugest of thanks to everybody who joined in last week – we had another fabulous response and of course there were lots of wonderful cards with punched deets and also, hugest of apologies also if we didn't manage to get round to everyone.

So that’s what we did and now it’s over to you, and if you get a sec, don’t forget if you get a sec to check out our individual blogs and see what else we have been up to.

Welcome to Papertake Weekly Challenges!

Hi everyone! Welcome to PTW! No need to join! Just check out the challenges set every Tuesday night, do them if you would like to and then upload them to your blog! The challenges will be fairly open to interpretation so whatever you decide to make is upto you! (cards, LO's, altered art, ATC's etc!!) Don't forget to leave a comment with a link to your blog so we can all check out your creations!! (If you do not have a blog, please send me a picture via email and I'll add it for you!) Have fun! x

Contact us!

Just Say No lol :)

It would be a great help to us if you would consider turning off word verification peeps. To do this is really easy and all you need to do is go to Customise > Settings > Comments > then scroll down to where it says comment moderation and select always (this won't stop anybody leaving you a comment but they won't show on your blog till you approve them). Then scroll down to show word verification for comments? and select No

Thanks for doing this xxxx
